Having grown up in Europe, attending university in the US and living in Singapore for the last 7 years, this has given him a broad scope on the world and investing in general. He considers himself as a generalist investor with a preference for small and mid-cap companies and special situations. However, a large cap that has gone temporarily out of favor might also pique his interest. His style of investing could be categorized as more of value investor, rather than growth at any cost. Learning from Charlie Munger on the importance of quality of a company has been of tremendous value over the years.
